Most you have paid for a round of golf ?

[richart]

Following on from Liverpoolphil's Wentworth thread, what is the most you have paid for a round/days golf ?

Mine was £125 for the Berkshire but that included lunch, which is normally £30 ish. I did top this at Carnoustie though last October, when paying £120 just for the golf (In the rain, wind, cold )

Personally think both courses are worth the cost, and I probably object more to paying £50 for a disappointing course, perhaps in bad condition. Foxhills springs to mind.

 

[Birchy]

Paid about £130 iirc for Birkdale last November including lunch. Was worth every penny. Paid about a ton for Muirfield and again that was worth every penny.

 

[Hobbit]

£195 @ Royal Lytham. Weather turned on the back 9... didn't enjoy it too much.

Can't remember what I paid at Carnoustie and St Andrews but both were over £100.

Two courses on my to play list, especially Birkdale. What an area for links golf courses.

Really have not played enough high end courses but just cannot justify the expense. Most was however much it cost for the GM meet at Hillside. £60 I think.

You can play some top course off peak though Greg. West Hill and Liphook do great summer twilight green fees for £50 and £35 respectively. Other top courses have good winter rates, like Saunton for less than £50 including lunch. Getting the weather right can be a problem though.

From the 1st of March it will be £30 to play Woodhall Spa :mmm: haven't really ventured too far...

I've played the Brabazon 5 times and I've only paid for one of them rounds which cost £20.

Fair point, just not that many near here. May have to have a tour of forumers home club's next year

I'm in this camp. Unless it's a weekend away I can't justify it, 300 for a weekend at belfry on brabazon/PGA and a weekend at Celtic manor £250 for 2010/roman road top my list, when you think both included a nights stay and food it's not bad, but over £100 for a single round to me is not happening, that's 10% of my subs

Trilby Tour ?

Yep.....even with all the gear they throw in its still about £250 too much!! didn't think much of the course and despite entering the TT for the last 4 years, I'm now done with it. Every venue this year is a Marriott......a couple of good ones, but some decidedly average ones as well.

Playing with a member is a good idea. Now who do we know that is a member of a top club who can't wait to invite us for a game ?




















Rick are you there?

£50 for Lough Erne but that included buggies so I suppose the most for golf only is 55 euro for Ballyliffin.

Played Sprowston over New Year - tidy course but nothing special.

Trilby Tour was a good idea but grown into something that isn't pleasant and a bit too fond of itself

£225 for a day ticket at Sunningdale
